Sofia Carson: I pretended to be belle as a child

Disney star Sofia Carson has revealed she pretended to be belle from Beauty and the Beast as a child.

The 22-year-old actress — who appears in the role of Evie, the daughter of the Evil Queen, in Disney’s Descendants movie — has revealed she would always attend Halloween parties dressed as the iconic movie character.

Sofia exclusively told BANG Showbiz: “I always loved belle from Beauty and the Beast. I always thought I looked like her, so I dressed like her for every Halloween. It’s pretty ridiculous. My sister though, was obsessed with Tinker Bell.”

Meanwhile, Sofia’s on-screen co-star BooBoo Stewart revealed Tinker Bell — from the Peter Pan stories — to be his favourite Disney character of all time, partly because he felt able to relate to her.

He shared: “Tinker Bell is one of my favourite characters. I always just saw a little piece of myself in Tinker Bell.

“The blonde hair and I was always smaller. I’m still not a very large person, so I always felt I was close to her.”

Disney’s Descendants soundtrack is available now from Walt Disney Records. The soundtrack includes songs performed by the cast with four bonus tracks.
